Has anyone had to have a Echocardiogram because of the babies position?

I had a ultrasound last week at 22 weeks and the technician had a hard time getting the baby to move so she can get a clear shot of the heart. She was able to get everything she needed but that one shot. She even had me get up and touch my toes five times and try again. No success the baby was still in the same position. When I left she said everything look good. Now three days later my doctor called to tell me they are going to do a Echo Cardiogram in January just to get clearer pictures of the heart and not to be worried. Has anyone else gone threw this?

I had a similar problem. My baby likes to hide her head behind my pelvic boned when she's being viewed. I had to have a series of tests done so they could get the measurements. so its more than likely nothing to worry about. The doctor just wants the correct measurements instead of a guestament.
